A member asked:

13yr f w/ t1dmwhat does this mean when results for bun wnl, creatinine is low 0.4, but 24 hr u protein and creatinie ratio are greater than 300?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

High Urine P/C: Your u protein- creat ratio means you are spilling protein (p) in your urine. You now have good kidney function. See a physician to get a 24 hour urine for a creatinine clearance and protein to quantify the amount of p you have. You will need a drug like ramipril-an ace-inhibitor, or benicar, (olmesartan) an angiotensin receptor blocker to reduce the p you have. If this done, you will protect your kidneys.
